When Lee Harvey Oswald is mentioned, many people think of him as the sniper who assassinated President John F. Kennedy on November 22, 1963. They are undoubtedly influenced by the Warren Commission and other US government investigations that conclude Oswald shot and killed Kennedy as he traveled by motorcade in Dallas, Texas. This is reinforced by the mainstream media. He was declared guilty without the benefit of a trial.But did Oswald really kill Kennedy? What are the facts?Lee Oswald said that he didn't kill anybody. He claimed he was a patsy. No one can place him on the Sixth Floor of the Texas School Book Depository building at the time of the assassination - the place where he was said to have fired the fatal shots.According to the official investigations, Oswald ran down to the Second Floor lunchroom after the shooting and was then spotted by a police officer. But Oswald said he was on the First Floor, and went out the front door to see what the excitement was about. Was Oswald telling the truth?This book answers that question.

Providing the first global cultural context for the assassination of John F. Kennedy, this investigation into how United States intelligence agencies and other entities manipulated liberal religious groups and educational institutions for ideological, political, and economic gain during the Cold War exposes numerous previously misunderstood political operations. Including assassinations, these projects include those facilitated by Allen Dulles, John Foster Dulles, the U.S. State Department, the Office of Strategic Services and its successor, the CIA, and other individuals and groups. Focusing on the manipulations of key individuals in the American Unitarian Association, the Unitarian Service Committee, and the Unitarian-supported Albert Schweitzer College by covert American interests during the Cold War, this exposé asserts that an unwitting Lee Harvey Oswald—an asset and pawn of American intelligence—was the ideal scapegoat in a tragically successful conspiracy to murder President Kennedy.

Presents an analysis of the events surrounding the assassination of JFK and the subsequent investigation conducted by Jim Garrison, arguing that the evidence relied upon by the Warren Commission was smothered by the military-industrial complex and its civilian allies.

Prof. Ernst Titovets, M.D., Ph.D., the author and the only English-speaking friend of Oswald in Minsk, offers his unique insight into the enduring enigma of Oswald. Unique in assassination-related literature, Oswald emerges as a fully human character without the burdens of post-assassination history and conjecture to distort either his character or his motivations. Whether attending together opera and other musical performances, playing cards, calling on the English-language student girls, enacting plays and giving mock interviews before a tape recorder, arraigning mock military drills and combat fights, going through political and philosophical debates, the portrait of Oswald that emerges is alternately poignant, canny, humorous, intriguing, revelatory and deeply personal.The author's medical education and professional research background provide a new perspective. The author gives much prominence to the socio-political outlook and activity of Oswald, the area that other researchers tend to completely overlook. This approach explains Oswald's motivation for coming to the Soviet Union, his analytical writings on the life of the workers in the Soviet Union as he saw it from the inside and his ideas about improving the life of people in the United States. Oswald emerged as a person who loved his country and wanted to do his best to find a way to solve the socio-political problems inherent to the capitalist system. The illustrations include photographs of Oswald with his Russian friends and co-workers, his wife Marina and his baby-daughter June, as well as other illustrations important in Oswald's story. Fascinating tapes that the author made with Oswald are in print for the first time. The history behind that dark day in Dallas of November 22, 1963 still provokes keen interest from scholars, journalists, novelists and general public around the world. It will stay relevant because many in a great nation lost trust in their government and an innocent man was used to cover up the political assassination of the President.Oswald: Russian Episode stands alone as the only comprehensive study of Oswald written from the perspective of one who knew him well and is qualified and capable of bringing his message to the reader.

On a night of torrential rain, a warrior appears near the Colombia River, where the Chinook people thrived before the hydroelectric dams came and changed their entire way of life. He has come to reclaim the river, to return it to its original majesty. Soon after, government employees are found murdered with elaborate harpoons. As the body count grows, Francine Smohalla, a government marine biologist of Chinook and white descent, embarks on her own investigation of the bizarre murders. As she desperately tries to find the killer and prevent any other murders, she finds herself spinning in the convergence of ethnic hatreds between Indians and whites, an unlikely relationship with a kindred spirit whose troubled life has led him to contemplate terrorism and apocalypse, an ancient prophecy about the return of her beloved salmon, and the giant dams on the Columbia that loom large and as seemingly immovable as the mountains themselves. A River Out of Eden is a gripping literary thriller straight from today’s headlines set against the uniquely American contradictions of the Pacific Northwest.

National Book Award Finalist: “This man’s ideas may be the most influential, not to say controversial, of the second half of the twentieth century.”—Columbus Dispatch At the heart of this classic, seminal book is Julian Jaynes's still-controversial thesis that human consciousness did not begin far back in animal evolution but instead is a learned process that came about only three thousand years ago and is still developing. The implications of this revolutionary scientific paradigm extend into virtually every aspect of our psychology, our history and culture, our religion—and indeed our future. “Don’t be put off by the academic title of Julian Jaynes’s The Origin of Consciousness in the Breakdown of the Bicameral Mind. Its prose is always lucid and often lyrical…he unfolds his case with the utmost intellectual rigor.”—The New York Times “When Julian Jaynes . . . speculates that until late in the twentieth millennium BC men had no consciousness but were automatically obeying the voices of the gods, we are astounded but compelled to follow this remarkable thesis.”—John Updike, The New Yorker “He is as startling as Freud was in The Interpretation of Dreams, and Jaynes is equally as adept at forcing a new view of known human behavior.”—American Journal of Psychiatry
